Information for Letter Writers (and Myself)
Thank you for writing on my behalf! I appreciate that you likely have a ton of these to send out, so I collected some of the basics here. Below is every position I’m applying to this cycle and how each one collects letters.
- MathJobs: You’ll get a email, and you upload once on MathJobs.
- Interfolio: Once again, you’ll get a email and upload a single time.
- Portal: the institution runs its own system (sorry) and emails you an upload link once I submit.
- Email: Incredibly, you have to straight up email these ones.
- If shortlisted: I only give your contact details; the institution will reach out if it wants a letter.
- None: no letters requested.
So, in total, it should be 1 (mathjobs) + 1 (interfolio) + \(N_{\rm portal}\) + 4 (email) uploads by you.
51 applications: 27 tenure-track, 24 postdoc.
